A Team Leader presents to a field sales team in an iCode Classroom

For many professionals, the dream is clear: build a profitable side hustle without giving up the security of a full-time job. But not all side hustles are equal. Some demand heavy time investment, while others require unpredictable risk. That’s where owning a tech education franchise stands out and it’s a scalable, flexible, and future-ready business model.

Why Tech Education Franchises Are Perfect for Side Hustlers?

1. Low operational dependency
Running an education franchise doesn’t mean being on-site 24/7. With a structured business model like iCode’s franchise program, you get complete operational playbooks, staff training, and marketing support. You can focus on strategy and growth, while your trained team handles day-to-day operations.

2. The STEM wave is unstoppable
According to a recent report by U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, STEM jobs are projected to grow by 11% through the next decade, much faster than non-STEM jobs. Parents recognize this and actively invest in after-school programs that build coding and problem-solving skills.

3. Scalable without being full-time
Many franchise owners start their business part-time, hiring qualified instructors and center directors to run programs. This allows you to earn additional income while continuing your career.

4. Recession-resistant and future-proof
Education, especially technology-focused education remains a top priority for parents even during economic downturns. This makes a tech education franchise a stable, future-focused investment.
